Eternity lay before me Casting cold its eyes upon the dregs below The whips and scorns carried night and day When freedom effervescent lilts just out of reach And you my martyr my sacrificial child of light Gaze so empty at it all Why do your eyes not turn? How do you see this burning rage And let it be? Surely these archons can't hold you so fast While ashes alight in perpetual motion To grace brazen wings meant not for flight But to greet innocent souls to the earth This deity that called me can be no longer my god When truly no thoughts consume For those below wracked in terror Weighted in fear for the eyes of that child Which turn naught for them naught for the promised light Naught for the atrocities committed by mine own hands Yet here we stand I before you for what? Tell me martyr what was it worth? How can a soul carry forth in the name of light For profane truth writ large in cascading towers for a name No mortal can utter I demand you answer Voices of children cracked and weeping fill my ears And will you not turn? Lives cut short for the price of their teeth fill my ears And will you not turn? The cries of a world blinded by an eye for and eye fill my ears And will you not turn? Here in mine own twilight I stand before you And I demand you turn your eyes to me snake Answer my sins they are compounded by your own And tell me Just tell me what it was worth? Tell me my (Son) Martyr Which of us suffers more blasphemy? (Sojourner) I listened so faithfully (Repudiate) When whisper you to my ears You could not be the one (No) And I have Done all you asked of me (Listen) Yet here I stand (Falsified) Still but a slave to your charge An echo of self (Vitiated) And here I find Eden empty My child you know Culpa tua est So sets your sun Somnus fili No martyr I will not embrace that (Me) Moment of death (Promised) Interrupt me not I am Waiting for your honesty (Always) Sever yourself (Cease) But you cannot You are incapable (Anything) You hold no love (Everything) This was a burden to my heart I wash my hands of you My child you know (sever yourself) Culpa tua est (you cannot hold me accountable) So sets your sun (sever yourself) Somnus fili (no) Let the scarabs eat my heart And this mountain eat my bones Let the carrion replace my eyes with stones These doors of the horizon Have always stood closed Child perpetuate your fear no longer Never was there a call for your hands to be so Kneel before me my son and lift your eyes to mine I forgive you I forgive you No I refuse A liar cannot forgive No I will not Your words are as empty as you Fathomless wretch But what of these broken wings? No What of this broken heart Martyr? What say you to this? Why have you no words for me? Your eloquence escapes you at my expense does it not? Oh but you know This was never more than in your heart And you corrupted light My child this is art What sins of confession Have you braided in your tale? To hide your transgressions Behind featherless wings I once heard tales Of the fires burning and lighting the path Shadows stretching under a white hot gaze So oppressive Yet so beautiful And I have felt that light Or so I thought In trials and suffering at hands cleaner than mine own If what you say is to be believed The horizon stands before me As adrift between sight and dream As my own actions are to me And I ask myself how my actions could be any other than mine alone And here I find the truth of the matter Stories told spoke to me in lifetimes ago Of glory and wonder and I made them as malleable as the gold I beheld in my mind Life giving and stealing both My confessions will not serve to save me when it cannot undo what I have done So face me into this horizon Martyr And be done what must be so that my suffering may find a place to rest And please I just want to see something beautiful before the end
